      Hello!

      I have configured my router (Movistar) in bridge mode.

      I set up a interface in my pfsense as wan_pppoe using the user and the password and the rest as default. My isp not give me more info about the config data..

      The question is that I have internet, but with some problems of connection because my ip phone restarts,my vpn falll down and my navigation is slow.

      So I was investigating and I saw this in logs:

      Oct 14 12:20:03 dpinger send_interval 500ms loss_interval 2000ms time_period 60000ms report_interval 0ms data_len 0 alert_interval 1000ms latency_alarm 500ms loss_alarm 20% dest_addr 192.168.144.1 bind_addr 88.12.18.122 identifier "WAN_PPPOE "
      Oct 14 12:20:06 dpinger WAN_PPPOE 192.168.144.1: Alarm latency 0us stddev 0us loss 100%

      I've checked the router config and is in dhcp so this IP should be 192.168.1.0/24 not 192.168.144.0/24
      Checking the Gateway I can see that is as "dynamic ip" so i can't change it…

      I've created a new gateway with 192.168.1.0/24 ip and is still failing.

      If you can see the images attached I think would be easier to undestand.

      Please help me, i dont know what more do...

      Regards!

        Just a basic fix :
        #1 Reset your modem, given by your ISP, to its factory default state, and then configure it, once more, in bridge mode.
        [Bridge Mode : DHCP disabled, NAT disabled, WiFi disabled (if present, in case of a router)]

        #2 Reinstall pFsense, and just configure for the basic internet configuration (WAN in PPPoe mode, and a working LAN).

        Now, observe if everything is stable, at least for 4-6 hours. When everything is working alright, begin your other modifications (VPN and other stuff).

                Could you just be a bit more descriptive ? What is really happening with your IP phones ?

                  I have connected my ip phones (10)  to switch.
                  This sw to an interface in the pfsense and the pfsense as a router because my "real" router is in bridge mode.

                  The phones works, but every 10-15 min they reboot.

                  I followed this steps but it still failing:
                  https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=29131.0

                  The phones just connect to internet a log in vitual pbx via DNS

                  I can give you some logs from the pfsense …

                  Thank you as always!!!
